Desco Fine Homes

About

Sometimes hiring a builder is just one of the litany of tasks one must do to build a custom home. The process, for some, can seem daunting. There are so many builders out there to choose from. How do you know which one is right for your vision?

If you appreciate quality craftsmanship, communication, and a home that’s built to the most exacting standards, you can start and finish your search for the perfect builder at Desco Fine Homes.

“Clients choose Desco over other brands because they have seen our homes or have been referred by one of our clients or our Realtor friends,” says David Goettsche, founder of Desco Fine Homes. “Our business comes to us by word of mouth, and good word travels fast!”

Of course, in an industry driven by deadlines, being accessible is key to a successful business.

“Clients also like the fact that I am personally on the site and their direct line of communication with them,” David added. “I can always be reached by phone or text.”

Because long-term relationships are important to David, he personally oversees each project and never takes on more than his team can handle. Desco prides itself on being a true boutique builder. Each talented craftsman is hand-chosen by David and many of them have worked with David for decades — some for more than 30 years.

David and his expert team stay on the forefront of homebuilding with knowledge of the latest and most innovative ideas for design elements, finish, and decor. He brings the very best architects, plan designers, interior designers, and home automation consultants to his clients.

With almost 40 years in the homebuilding industry, David has become a builder’s builder — someone an expert in the field would call to construct their own home. He prides his brand on being a “high-performance” homebuilder, constructing homes to the most exacting standards so that they will stand the test of time. His brand is constantly elevating the art and craft of residential construction through thoughtful details and using only the finest materials.

“Our goal is perfection, and pride and craftsmanship is in everything we do,” David said. “We build it right the first time.”

While Desco Fine Homes is an expert in the Mediterranean style, David says that demand is growing for Transitional and Modern styles, but he still builds just as many Old World and Traditional homes. But thanks to David’s depth and breadth of industry knowledge, the fact of the matter is that if you can dream it, Desco Fine Homes can build it.

“Our homes are a unique reflection of our clients,” David said.

And if you listen to what their clients are saying, it’s reflection that truly shines.

And what a great experience it was from start to finish. David did an exceptional job, was always helpful and available and followed through to make sure we were completely happy with every aspect: a testimonial to his dedication, integrity and customer oriented approach. We raised our kids in the Aberdeen home and when they went off to college and career we decided to downsize and build a new custom home.
We immediately called David Goettsche to begin the process. Once again it was a great pleasure working with David. He was thoughtful, made great suggestions, but was never intrusive. Despite all the commotion that surrounds building a new home, many of our new neighbors went out of their way to tell us how David was the best builder they had ever seen, making sure that their properties and their daily activities were taken into consideration and respected. Our new home turned out perfectly! We are very happy with the exceptional attention to detail and the exquisite fine touches David put on our new home. We would recommend David Goettsche to any and all who want to build a custom home, large or small. David (Desco Fine Homes) is a great builder, a true craftsman and fine person and a pleasure to work with. Read More

David’s attention to detail, pride for his work, and artistic ability made our home a very special place we have loved for over 10 years. When we were looking for a builder, as soon as we walked David’s houses we knew we wanted him to be our builder. The detail and quality of products stood out in comparison to other builders. David made the building process seamless, he was attentive to our needs, gave valued input wherever needed and delivered our home on time as promised. If we ever have the opportunity to build a home again, Desco Homes would be our first choice. Read More

The floor plan worked perfectly on the lot and made the most of the view and lighting. In addition, David has been quick to repair anything through the years that needed it (It was always caused by us, like a thawed ice maker damaging the floors). I highly recommend David as an experienced and persistent professional, a perfectionist, and as a trustworthy gentleman who is easy to work with. Read More

David and his entire crew were great to work with, did excellent work – on time and on budget – and were there to provide suggestions and insight on the best way to tackle a project. They never cut corners and delivered great results on every phase of our remodel. They took the initiative to fix things before I even asked and truly delivered on their mission to ‘exceed expectations’. Thank you to your entire crew for a beautiful result and a great experience!

As you know there were many builders in the Lakewood area to choose from and I feel very fortunate that we were introduced to you. Your guidance and supervision in building our custom home was exceptional. I really appreciated being able to work so closely with you and to have you guide us through so many decisions. David, you are a very gifted builder with such a focus on details and timelines. I think what stands out the most in my mind when I think back on the journey of building our home is one specific characteristic: You are honest and dependable. When you said something, I never had to worry. You always came through and even after we moved into our new house, we felt so secure in your workmanship and follow up that if there had been a problem, we knew you would be there for us and will be there for us.
The best feeling of all though comes from listening to several of our neighbors who used other builders, complain about their builder’s lack of communication and follow up after they moved into their homes. The Desco Home building experience was really a fun and exciting journey and I hope I am fortunate enough to build another home with you and your staff. Read More
